I forward the following message to emc-developers a few months ago, but I don't think it's been acted on. Perhaps we can use this in a future version of the rtai packages; I verified on this 6.06 machine that /lib/udev/devices exists.
However, the problem of rtai_shm being created mode 660 should not exist if you're using the kernel and rtai packages provided by linuxcnc.org -- only the /dev/rtf* problem, which doesn't impact day-to-day use of emc2. ----- Forwarded message from Artur Lipowski <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> ----- From: Artur Lipowski <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: Problem with rtai test Date: Sun, 05 Nov 2006 10:04:20 +0100 X-Spambayes-Classification: ham; 0.00 (6) Roberto Bucher wrote: >It seems that your system is OK now.

That way, nodes for broken subsystems or devices which can't be detected automatically by the kernel, will always be available." It means that you can use Roberto's script to create RTAI devices in the /lib/udev/devices folder and allow udev to do the rest.
